[Q]
Hi,
I have nexus s GRJ22 Android 2.3.4 I904. I tried rooting it using clockwork and super user but after doing that when i reboot It stays in the google logo. I could find that i was not able to mount system in the clockwork recovery with means that its not having sufficient permissions .
1. Factory reset - not working
2. Tried fixing permissions - not working
3. tried remounting - not working
what i'm possible to do is get into fastboot mode and clockwork recovery mode and in the normal booting it stays at the google logo.
with this i can say i messed up something when i was rooting. and the phone is useless now.
The last option i know now is fastboot flashing of all the images (boot, system, recovery). How to flash everything finally and bring it back to the state which I got from the factory?
I'm looking for if any one has theses images so that I can fastboot flash it and bring it back in an operating condition.
I'm new to android development, android devices and a noob.
Please do ask If you guys need any more info.
I appreciate any answers and thanks for reading my question.
First, make sure that ClockWorkMod recovery that you installed is the right version for your NS model (sorry but I don't know what the "I904" means)
After you flashed the correct recovery then I'd suggest you go to this thread and see if there is a full OTA package for your NS model. If there is one then you can download it, connect your phone to a PC, mount SD card from the recovery, copy the package over then flash it. That should bring your NS back to life.
If there is no OTA package for your model then you can search/ask for a stock nandroid backup of your phone model. It's most likely that someone has already posted it here in xda.

Thanks for the reply.
its not I904 I'm sorry its I9020 which is the model number of the phone.
I tried the link that you had posted already but it stops at getprop function in the script when i do the update and says status 7 error and the update fails because the /system is not mounting.
Kindly suggest me to bring this phone back.
Hmm, I still have the impression that you have the incorrect version of CWM. What is your service provider? As far as I remember, the I9020T and I9020A require a different version of CWM. And also what is the version of CWM installed?
If you've got the I9020T, try installing this one (from kouch's site)
But if you've got the I9020A, you should try the recovery from this guide (Part 3 - Recovery)
Sorry for the delayed response ,
I have the Tmobile carrier and its I9020T. The version of CWR is 3.0.2.4 which is running. As i said before its not monting the /system.
any other options that I have. ?
Please suggest
Thanks for your time..
I got the nandroid for GRJ22 I9020T.
I'm unable to fastboot flash boot boot.img from this ROM.
it says FAILWrite..
also tried to do the same way for system.img it says Invalid Magic Code !
thankyou suksit I recovered the ROM link that u had posted. I pushed using the adb on to the sdcard and installed from the CWR. I had tried that initially but had not worked.. but now it worked perfectly..
thanks KUDOS..

your phone was never bricked. bricked means itll never ever work again. if your planning on using it later and using it now, then bricked is definitely not the right word to use ;-)
well then its appropriate to say
"It was broken for two days"

My boot loader and phone is rooted.
AT&T Htc one X
I have tried to flash a couple roms + the boot.img but the device pauses at HTC splash screen (I DID clear caches)
but its constant and I have to go into Fastboot-Usb and reinstall the RUU in order to try again.
Does anyone have any ideas?

did you flash a recovery yet and if so which one ? if you want help you need to give us some details ?
What rom did you try to flash ? How did you go about it ?
Thank the android gods it wasn't an international ROM.
Did you flash superuser or supersu. We will need a little more information in the steps you've taken. Can you make a list of the steps for us?

ok. i'm not gonna beg if you want help I need DETAILS not vague s***t like "TWRP or whatever".. So evidently you can boot into recovery with no problem. What rom are you trying to flash ? You need to extract the boot.img from the rom.zip and flash that in fastboot and then flash the rom.zip in recovery.
If you're not booting it's most likely because your phone is not finding a kernel (boot.img)
So more details or more reading
Good luck to you

Its not a good idea to ask for help and then flame. Honestly what was hard about posting this the first time? I thought maybe English wasn't your language or something. How could you flash a recovery before unlocking???
If you wiped everything, you should reflash bootimage in adb. Then flash your ROM. Please be nice.

I keep getting this msg "this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc.." on the loading screen. At this point i just want to restore it back to normal , idc if i lose data , i just want my phone to WORK! I've flashed a clean recovery.img but whenever i try to access recovery , it brings me back to that screen with the red words. In addition , my phone is rogers so i can't even find a correct RUU to install. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get my phone to work again ? Any help is greatly welcomed !
P.S Wow i think it got worse , now it doesnt even loop again , it goes start into that menu bootloader, reboot , power down.. Omg i spent 5 hours looking into this. I NEED HELP!

..... It says that on every One X, it's HTC telling whoever turns the phone on that you used HTCDev.com
Make Sure you have TWRP (recovery) flashed/installed ... then in the bootloader go into recovery and flash cm10 ... and since you probably have the newer hboot 1.14 that means that you HAVE to flash the kernel (boot.img) via fastboot
Which is simple,
flash cm10
then reboot into the bootloader > fastboot
extract the boot.img from the cm10.zip
and fastboot flash boot boot.img
then your done reboot and enjoy.... (anything else read threw the forum, all your answers have been asked by somebody else already)
On rogers he won't have the 1.14 hboot, which means all he has to do is install the rom.
Try flashing the recovery again (TWRP ONLY!)
And then reinstall CM10

That might be your problem. CWM isn't supported for this phone and has been known to corrupt data.
Links for all the files you need are in a sticky in the Development forum. Here's the link for TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677447
Once you've got that, you can wipe your phone inside TWRP (don't do it in bootloader--you'll have to reformat your sd card), and reflash CM10.

You can't use Goomanager if the phone doesn't boot. You need to push it over to your phone using adb, then you can flash it from recovery.

Read up, get adb working. Then you can install TWRP using adb.
So first i need to get adb working , then install TWRP to wipe my phone? To access that i flash TWRP and go into recovery right ?
EDIT: So .. i've downloaded that adb , and i got a bunch of files.. what do i do with this? I put them into my fastboot folder in my C drive.. Also i need to unlock my phone to do this right ? Cause i accidently relocked it .
EDIT: OKAY i rooted my phone , and got into TWRP , tried a factory rest under the wipe menu. http://i48.tinypic.com/13yklep.jpg It says fails.. what do i do ?
Go to mount usb storage (not sure which screen its on) while it's plugged into your computer
If windows says the card is corrupted, format it fat32, then copy over a rom onto your sd card

Hi,
I have this AT&T one x, (I m using on NON AT&T network), so cant have an ota update.
Looking at few forums, downloaded the OTA version on XDA (631 Mb)
Saw people writing, that just rename the file to update.zip and then go to recovery and choose install from internal memory.
That dint work for me.
Error: not able to mount sd mem
Then few people wrote to choose install from external mem.
That dint work either.
Error: not able to mount sd mem
Then saw few people saying that I need to root my device and unlock bootloader.
I dint that, and tried from bootlaoder to install from zip.
That also dint work.
Now saw, I few wrote that i need to be S - OFF.
Which I tried doing it, but i m not able to do s-off for myself.
Pls pls pls.... can any of you EXPERTs out here help me.
Waited like for AT&T to release the update, now when it is out, i m not able to make it through.
Your step by step instruction would be highly appreciable.
Be aware, that if you have the AT&T version, and you are rooted, then you probably have SuperCID (in fact, you must have SuperCID, unless it was already changed back). If you have SuperCID you must S-off (or return to the AT&T CID) before applying the OTA, or you will brick your phone!
I am not all that familiar with the process to install using OTA.zip (and haven't done it myself), but it was discussed in these threads:

In this case , do i need to relock my bootloader and stock recovery?
If yes, where can i find stock recovery, i have deleted it.
By "i deleted it" do you mean you installed a custom recovery? If so, yes you need to get stock recovery back on.
Only way I know of to reinstall stock recovery is to run the 2.20 ruu. Since you're s-off, you don't need to relock; just run it.

You probably have a custom recovery. Reboot to bootloader and select recovery and see what you get. If it's TWRP, you'll get a teamwin splash screen and then some options. Stock recovery will just show a screen with a green circle.

I have already done that.
And now in case anyone needs help, i can help those people out.
Coz the method is simple, but it is not at all explained clearly in any of the threads.
It has come in bit and pieces.
I have noticed one thing.
That after installing the update and again unlockin the bootloader and rooting, I am not able to see "TAMPERED" being written in the boatloader.
Also, now when I am rooted and also have SU permission, I m not able to switch on my WiFi tether with the files mentioned in the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677261
The "TAMPERED" flag goes away when you're s-off and flash a new hboot.
I believe wifi tether is blocked on the new AT&T base. You can flash a custom rom on the 3.17 base and it should work.
Hello, I seem to have soft bricked my tf700.
I flashed a newish pacman nightly in CWM (after wiping data/cache/dalvik cache), which completed with no errors, then I flashed the corresponding GAPPS. But my device became stuck in the pacman boot intro.
So I tried flashing slimkat which led to my device not getting past the first bootup screen (where you can enter recovery if pressing the corresponding buttons).
After this screw-up I stupidly hit the wipe data button on the bootloader. I then tried doing the method of using fastboot to erase system, cache, and all that so I could flash system blob of the newest asus US SKU (that is correct for a US bought tf700 right?). Either this or wiping the data caused me to have a different bootloader as pictured below as I no longer have the android button and it does not ask me to press volume up to access recovery (the only way to access recovery is by hitting the wipe data button in bootloader).
I can still fastboot flash CWM, but trying to flash TWRP does not work as it finishes but going into recovery causes the tablet to just restart. Trying to flash asus stock as above would always give me an error like the one pictured below. Similar errors occur if trying to flash any rom inside CWM via an external sd card.
I do not have access to adb as i believe i dont have usb debugging enabled since the pacman rom or any other rom did not ever start. It just gives me the device not found error even after manually installing the drivers on two different computers.
Cant seem to get these pics to load, but copying the url and pasting it works.

I have now tried the the pacman nightly, pacman release, slim kat release, clean rom release, an ICS asus stock rom, and two different versions of the jellybean asus stock rom. These were either done in CWM via internal sd card, external sd card, or done through fastboost flash system blob and flash zip.

As far as i know, i have installed the stock rom, or atleast multiple versions of it with no success as it gives me an error stating something like staging or system when trying to write it.

Hmm, I'd Download a stock Rom for the device offline, take on the sd card and put it on there real quick and try to flash that, if not, you probably bricked your device. I wouldn't know how to fix it beyond that. Ask the dev that made the Rom were everything that went south and an email to cwm wouldn't hurt either
I am also not sure if I need to have my external sd card formatted a certain way or download a specific CWM to allow flashing the stock rom. Ive spent over 10 hours trying to figure this out, very frustrating.
I have run CWM 6.0.4.6, CWM 6.0.4.7, and older versions to see if I could flash the stock rom with no luck. I have also tried different versions of TWRP but they always hang and reboot my tf700. I get errors ranging from status 6, status 7, cannot mount data, cannot mount staging, and cannot mount system. I am completely lost on what I can do. I have even tried a seperate sdcard to see if maybe the one I was originally using was bad with no luck. GG :/

You gotta stop flashing stuff and slow down!
During all of this you never posted your bootloader version, so you may have been on the wrong bootloader to begin with - who knows.
When you hit the Wipe Data in the bootloader menu you caused the BL do write a wipe data command to the misc partition, causing the tablet to boot to recovery each time you booted (I'm guessing here) and then interrupting it. Usually, with CWM installed, it eventually sorts it out and executes the wipe data command, but that takes hours! You just have to leave it alone.
Hard to tell where you are now since you flashed all kinds of stuff since then.
Can you still boot into the bootloader and have a fastboot connection?
What's the BL version number?
If you boot, what does it boot into?
The picture links are broken - at least in Tapatalk. Post them again?

Yes, the pictures are broken. You can still copy paste the url though. Couldnt figure out why it wouldnt work.
The tablet boots into the first screen that states it is unlocked, but does not go any further.
There is no bootloader version on the top left when holding down power + volume down.
I can still get to the place where it allows me to wipe data or fastboot, but the android icon to boot into android is now gone.
adb does not recognize my device even after manually installing the drivers, but fastboot works fine.
Is there any other way to find my bootloader version?

Maybe you want to edit your post with the urls then.... Makes it easier for people trying to help...
You're seriously messed up, I think. I see a USB icon in there which would indicate that your bootloader is ancient. But then it says: "starting USB fastboot protocol".
Is that after you selected the USB icon?
Anyway, I think you're only chance is buster99's method to get it back. Did you try that already?

Naturally you have to extract the system blob from the 10.6.1.14.10 US Asus firmware, but then you can try to fastboot flash it with buster's method.
Good luck!

Its starts the usb fastboot automatically if no input is selected. I had a different bootloader up until i tried that thing that buster did. It always gives me an error like cant write to system or something if i try it.

Which blob did you flash with buster's method?
I'm afraid you flashed something totally incompatible with your tablet...
You did not generate your nvflash blobs sometime prior to this, did you?

I flashed the asus stock rom downloaded from their website. The US version as it was bought in the US (right? 0.o). I hadnt heard of nvflash before trying to install a rom so i did not make a backup.

Are you sure you downloaded the correct firmware? For the TF700?
Do you still have the original zip you extracted the blob from?
Post the exact file name please.

Ive downloaded a lot of different versions from the asus website. The last one came from a forum post listing older firmware, which I have tried a lot of different ones.

You flashed all of those blobs???
In which order?
With what result?
Jeez - I think you're done for...
Sorry mate, but gotta catch some sleep now. Maybe somebody else has a bright idea...

I flashed the newest one first, and it gave me one of those errors that wouldnt allow me to flash it, and i tried the others with the same result. So technically i didnt flash any of them. I have been able to flash some roms, but they wouldnt boot so i would be stuck where i was when i started.

Right stop flashing random stuff - you have combinations of JB4.2.1, JB4.1.1 and ICS 4.0.3 just listed there.
Let me put a call out to @lj50036 who may be able to save you but if you have messed the bootloader up with no nvflash backups you are not going to be happy with the result. If you can still get to the bootloader screen then he can perform miraculous superhero acts and *maybe* save your device.
